2017 Ford Transit 2.0L Diesel · LB17 AAN

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its history of clean passes. The most recent test on 07 May 2025 at 85,264 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following a failure just one mile prior. This pattern suggests that the previous owner is proactive in addressing minor issues immediately to ensure compliance, as the vehicle has consistently maintained a clean record without recurring mechanical or structural failures over the last three testing cycles. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a nine-year-old Transit, averaging approximately 9,500 miles per annum. Between the June 2023 test at 74,152 miles and the May 2024 test at 80,357 miles, the vehicle covered 6,205 miles, followed by another 4,907 miles in the year leading to the 2025 inspection. This relatively steady usage indicates regular operation rather than heavy commercial strain, which typically results in less strain on suspension components compared to high-mileage fleet vehicles. While the MOT record shows no persistent advisories, the instances of failure in 2024 and 2025 without recorded defects indicate the vehicle likely failed on minor consumable items such as bulbs or wiper blades that were rectified instantly. A buyer should still manually inspect the physical condition of the suspension bushes and coil springs, as these are common points of wear on Transits of this age. Given the mileage, checking the brake discs for uneven wear and the underside for structural corrosion remains essential to ensure no hidden rust has developed since the last official test.
